# QUICK-START
#
# The quickest start is if you want to use DHCP.
# In that case, everything should work out of the box, no configuration
# necessary, though the startup script will warn you that you haven't
# specified anything.

#
# WARNING :- some examples have a mixture of IPv4 (ie 192.168.0.1) and IPv6
# (ie 4321:0:1:2:3:4:567:89ab) internet addresses. They only work if you have
# the relevant kernel option enabled. So if you don't have an IPv6 enabled
# kernel then remove the IPv6 address from your config.
#

#
# If you want to use a static address or use DHCP explicitly, jump
# down to the section labelled INTERFACE HANDLERS.
#
# If you want to do anything more fancy, you should take the time to
# read through the rest of this file.

# DEFAULTS
#
# hotplug_eth0="yes"
# Do we allow hotplug to bring up interfaces or not? The default is we do,
# otherwise put no in the above value.
# NOTE: hotplug just has to be installed for hotplugging to work - it does
# not matter if it's in any runlevel or not.

##############################################################################
# MODULES
#
# We now support modular networking scripts which means we can easily
# add support for new interface types and modules while keeping
# compatability with existing ones.
# 
# Modules load by default if the package they need is installed.  If
# you specify a module here that doesn't have it's package installed
# then you get an error stating which package you need to install.
# Ideally, you only use the modules setting when you have two or more
# packages installed that supply the same service.
#
# In other words, you probably should DO NOTHING HERE...

# Prefer ifconfig over iproute2
#modules=( "ifconfig" )

# You can also specify other modules for an interface
# In this case we prefer udhcpc over dhcpcd
#modules_eth0=( "udhcpc" )

# You can also specify which modules not to use - for example you may be
# using a supplicant or linux-wlan-ng to control wireless configuration but
# you still want to configure network settings per ESSID associated with.
#modules=( "!iwconfig" "!wpa_supplicant" )
# IMPORTANT: If you need the above, please disable modules in that order


##############################################################################
# INTERFACE HANDLERS
# 
# We provide two interface handlers presently: ifconfig and iproute2.
# You need one of these to do any kind of network configuration.
# For ifconfig support, emerge sys-apps/net-tools
# For iproute2 support, emerge sys-apps/iproute2

# If you don't specify an interface then we prefer iproute2 if it's installed
# To prefer ifconfig over iproute2
#modules=( "ifconfig" )

# For a static configuration, use something like this
# (They all do exactly the same thing btw)
#config_eth0=( "192.168.0.2/24" )
#config_eth0=( "192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0" )

# We can also specify a broadcast
#config_eth0=( "192.168.0.2/24 brd 192.168.0.255" )
#config_eth0=( "192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255" )

# If you need more than one address, you can use something like this
# NOTE: ifconfig creates an aliased device for each extra IPv4 address
#       (eth0:1, eth0:2, etc)
#       iproute2 does not do this as there is no need to
#config_eth0=(
#	"192.168.0.2/24"
#	"192.168.0.3/24"
#	"192.168.0.4/24"
#)
# Or you can use sequence expresions
#config_eth0=( "192.168.0.{2..4}/24" )
# which does the same as above. Be careful though as if you use this and
# fallbacks, you have to ensure that both end up with the same number of
# values otherwise your fallback won't work correctly.

# You can also use IPv6 addresses
# (you should always specficy a prefix length with IPv6 here)
#config_eth0=(
#	"192.168.0.2/24"
#	"4321:0:1:2:3:4:567:89ab/64"
#	"4321:0:1:2:3:4:567:89ac/64"
#)

# If you wish to keep existing addresses + routing and the interface is up,
# you can specify a noop (no operation). If the interface is down or there
# are no addresses assigned, then we move onto the next step (default dhcp)
# This is useful when configuring your interface with a kernel command line
# or similar
#config_eth0=( "noop" "192.168.0.2/24" )

# If you don't want ANY address (only useful when calling for advanced stuff)
#config_eth0=( "null" )

# Here's how todo routing if you need it
#routes_eth0=(
#	"default via 192.168.0.1"		# IPv4 default route
#	"10.0.0.0/8 via 192.168.0.1"		# IPv4 subnet route
#	"::/0"					# IPv6 unicast
#)

# If a specified module fails (like dhcp - see below), you can specify a
# fallback like so
#fallback_eth0=( "192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0" )
#fallback_route_eth0=( "default via 192.168.0.1" )

# NOTE: fallback entry must match the entry location in config_eth0
# As such you can only have one fallback route.

# Some users may need to alter the MTU - here's how
#mtu_eth0="1500"

##############################################################################
# OPTIONAL MODULES

# INTERFACE RENAMING
# There is no consistent device renaming scheme for Linux.
# The preferred way of naming devices is via the kernel module directly or
# by using udev (http://www.reactivated.net/udevrules.php)

# If you are unable to write udev rules, then we do provide a way of renaming
# the interface based on it's MAC address, but it is not optimal.
# Here is how to rename an interface whose MAC address is 00:11:22:33:44:55
# to foo1
#rename_001122334455="foo1"

# You can also do this based on current device name - although this is not
# recommended. Here we rename eth1 to foo2.
#rename_eth1="foo2"

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# WIRELESS (802.11 support)
# Wireless can be provided by iwconfig or wpa_supplicant

# iwconfig
# emerge net-wireless/wireless-tools
# Wireless options are held in /etc/conf.d/wireless - but could be here too
# Consult the sample file /etc/conf.d/wireless.example for instructions
# iwconfig is the default

# wpa_supplicant
# emerge net-wireless/wpa-supplicant
# Wireless options are held in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
# Consult the sample file /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf.example for instructions
# To choose wpa_supplicant over iwconfig
#modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
# To configure wpa_supplicant
#wpa_supplicant_eth0="-Dprism54" # For Prism54 based cards
#wpa_supplicant_ath0="-Dmadwifi" # For Atheros based cards
# Consult wpa_supplicant for more drivers
# By default don't wait for wpa_suppliant to associate and authenticate.
# If you would like to, so can specify how long in seconds
#associate_timeout_eth0=60
# A value of 0 means wait forever.

# GENERIC WIRELESS OPTIONS
# PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS IN /etc/conf.d/wireless.example FOR
# HOW TO USE THIS ESSID VARIABLE
# You can also override any settings found here per ESSID - which is very
# handy if you use different networks a lot
#config_ESSID=( "dhcp" )
#dhcpcd_ESSID="-t 5"

# Setting name/domain server causes /etc/resolv.conf to be overwritten
# Note that if DHCP is used, and you want this to take precedence then
# set dhcp_ESSID="nodns"
#dns_servers_ESSID=( "192.168.0.1" "192.168.0.2" )
#dns_domain_ESSID="some.domain"
#dns_search_ESSID="search.this.domain search.that.domain"
# Please check the man page for resolv.conf for more information
# as domain and search are mutually exclusive.

# You can also override any settings found here per MAC address of the AP
# incase you use Access Points with the same ESSID but need different
# networking configs. Below is an example - of course you use the same
# method with other variables
#mac_config_001122334455=( "dhcp" )
#mac_dhcpcd_001122334455="-t 10"
#mac_dns_servers_001122334455=( "192.168.0.1" "192.168.0.2" )

# When an interface has been associated with an Access Point, a global
# variable called ESSID is set to the Access Point's ESSID for use in the
# pre/post user functions below (although it's not available in preup as you
# won't have associated then)

# If you're using anything else to configure wireless on your interface AND
# you have installed any of the above packages, you need to disable them
#modules=( "!iwconfig" "!wpa_supplicant" )

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# DHCP
# DHCP can be provided by dhcpcd, dhclient, udhcpc or pump
#
# dhclient: emerge net-misc/dhcp
# dhcpcd:   emerge net-misc/dhcpcd
# pump:     emerge net-misc/pump
# udhcpc:   emerge net-misc/udhcp

# If you have more than one DHCP client installed, you need to specify which
# one to use - otherwise we default to dhcpcd if available
#modules=( "udhcpc" ) # to select udhcpc over dhcpcd
#
# Notes:
# - dhcpcd, udhcpc and pump send the current hostname
#   to the DHCP server by default
#   pump always sends the current hostname - see below to disable
#   udhcpc and dhcpcd from doing this
# - dhcpcd does not daemonize when the lease time is infinite
# - udhcp-0.9.3-r3 and earlier does not support getting NTP servers 
# - dhclient does not support getting NTP servers 
# - pump does not support getting NIS servers
# - DHCP tends to erase any existing device information - so add
#   static addresses after dhcp if you need them
# - dhclient and udhcpc can set other resolv.conf options such as "option"
#   and "sortlist"- see the System module for more details

# Regardless of which DHCP client you prefer, you configure them the
# same way using one of following depending on which interface modules
# you're using.
#config_eth0=( "dhcp" )

# For passing custom options to dhcpcd use something like the following.  This
# example reduces the timeout for retrieving an address from 60 seconds (the
# default) to 10 seconds.
#dhcpcd_eth0="-t 10"

# dhclient, udhcpc and pump don't have many runtime options
# You can pass options to them in a similar manner to dhcpcd though
#dhclient_eth0="..."
#udhcpc_eth0="..."
#pump_eth0="..."

# To set options for dhclient, you need to have an /etc/dhclient.conf file
# See the dhclient man page for details

# GENERIC DHCP OPTIONS
# Set generic DHCP options like so
#dhcp_eth0="release nodns nontp nonis nogateway nosendhost"

# This tells the dhcp client to release it's lease when it stops, not to
# overwrite dns, ntp and nis settings, not to set a default route and not to
# send the current hostname to the dhcp server and when it starts.
# You can use any combination of the above options - the default is not to
# use any of them.

# DHCLIENT
# dhclient can modify /etc/dhclient.conf (or the file specified by the -cf
# option) with the current hostname and to strip any script lines. To enable
# this, add dhclient_edit_config="yes" to /etc/conf.d/net

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# For APIPA support, emerge net-misc/iputils or net-analyzer/arping

# APIPA is a module that tries to find a free address in the range
# 169.254.0.0-169.254.255.255 by arping a random address in that range on the
# interface. If no reply is found then we assign that address to the interface

# This is only useful for LANs where there is no DHCP server and you don't
# connect directly to the internet.
#config_eth0=( "dhcp" )
#fallback_eth0=( "apipa" )

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ARPING Gateway configuration 
# and
# Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA)
# For arpingnet / apipa support, emerge net-misc/iputils or net-analyzer/arping
#
# This is a module that tries to find a gateway IP. If it exists then we use
# that gateways configuration for our own. For the configuration variables
# simply ensure that each ocet is zero padded and the dots are removed.
# Below is an example.
#
#gateways_eth0="192.168.0.1 10.0.0.1"
#config_192168000001=( "192.168.0.2/24" )

#routes_010000000001=( "default via 10.0.0.1" )
#dns_servers_010000000001=( "10.0.0.1" )

# If we don't find any gateways (or there are none configured) then we try and
# use APIPA to find a free address in the range 169.254.0.0-169.254.255.255
# by arping a random address in that range on the interface. If no reply is
# found then we assign that address to the interface.

# NOTE: Vlans can be configured with a . in their interface names
# When configuring vlans with this name type, you need to replace . with a _
#config_eth0.1=( "dhcp" ) - does not work
#config_eth0_1=( "dhcp" ) - does work

# NOTE: Vlans are controlled by their physical interface and not per vlan
# This means you do not need to create init scripts in /etc/init.d for each

#slaves_bond0="eth0 eth1 eth2"
#config_bond0=( "null" ) # You may not want to assign an IP the the bond

# If any of the slaves require extra configuration - for example wireless or

# ADVANCED CONFIGURATION
# 
# Four functions can be defined which will be called surrounding the
# start/stop operations.  The functions are called with the interface
# name first so that one function can control multiple adapters. An extra two
# functions can be defined when an interface fails to start or stop.
#
# The return values for the preup and predown functions should be 0
# (success) to indicate that configuration or deconfiguration of the
# interface can continue.  If preup returns a non-zero value, then
# interface configuration will be aborted.  If predown returns a
# non-zero value, then the interface will not be allowed to continue
# deconfiguration.
#
# The return values for the postup, postdown, failup and faildown functions are
# ignored since there's nothing to do if they indicate failure.
#
# ${IFACE} is set to the interface being brought up/down
# ${IFVAR} is ${IFACE} converted to variable name bash allows

# FORCING MODULES
# The Big Fat Warning :- If you use module forcing do not complain to us or
# file bugs about it not working!
#
# Loading modules is a slow afair - we have to check each one for the following
# 1) Code sanity
# 2) Has the required package been emerged?
# 3) Has it modified anything?
# 4) Have all the dependant modules been loaded?

# Then we have to strip out the conflicting modules based on user preference
# and default configuration and sort them into the correct order.
# Finally we check the end result for dependancies.

# This, of course, takes valuable CPU time so we provide module forcing as a
# means to speed things up. We still do *some* checking but not much.

# It is essential that you force modules in the correct order and supply all
# the modules you need. You must always supply an interface module - we
# supply ifconfig or iproute2.

# The Big Fat Warning :- If you use module forcing do not complain to us or
# file bugs about it not working!

# Now that we've warned you twice, here's how to do it
#modules_force=( "ifconfig" )
#modules_force=( "iproute2" "dhcpcd" )

# We can also apply this to a specific interface
#modules_force_eth1=( "iproute2" )

# The below will not work
#modules_force=( "dhcpcd" )
# No interface (ifconfig/iproute2)
#modules_force=( "ifconfig" "essidnet" "iwconfig" )
# Although it will not crash, essidnet will not work as it has to come after
# iwconfig
#modules_force=( "iproute2" "ifconfig" )
# The interface will be setup twice which will cause problems
